Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to crime, anti-social behaviour, noise and other disturbance.
- The effect of the proposed development on the sustainability of the local community, with particular regard to housing and population mix in the area.
What decided it
The proposal would result in unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through increased noise and disturbance from multiple unrelated occupants, and would further exacerbate the existing over-concentration of HMOs in the area, undermining housing mix and community sustainability in conflict with the development plan.
